Livingston woman fatally struck while crossing street

LIVINGSTON -- A Livingston woman died Friday night after a white Lexus struck her and her daughter while they were walking across Mount Pleasant Avenue, authorities said.

Susan Weitzer, 63, and her daughter, Robyn Weitzer, 39, were crossing Mount Pleasant Avenue at the the Mount Pleasant Parkway intersection at 10:26 p.m. when a 2010 white Lexus SUV traveling westbound struck the two woman, said Paul Loriquet, spokesman for the Essex County Prosecutor's Office.

The driver, Ruby Abraham, 46, of West Orange, got out of the vehicle, aided the two women, and called police. Both women were transported to Morristown Memorial, authorities said.

The case remained under investigation, but Loriquet said it was dark and wet at the time of the accident. There have been no charges filed.
